Motion tracking in meteorological satellite imagery for atmospheric motion vector derivation

The focus of this thesis is the tracking of apparent motion from sequences of meteorological satellite images, in the context of Atmospheric Motion Vector (AMV) derivation. AMVs are estimates of atmospheric wind, they are routinely produced from visible, infrared window and water vapour (WV) imagery...
